Padauk - Character Set Support

Padauk supports the Myanmar (Burmese) script and a basic set of Latin characters. A selection of characters from the General Punctuation block (such as various-sized spaces, dashes and quotes) are also supported.

Inclusion of a basic Latin repertoire is provided as a convenience, e.g., for use in menus or for displaying markup in text files. These fonts are not intended for extensive Latin script use.

See Representing Myanmar in Unicode: Details and Examples (Unicode Technical Note #11) for the authoritative description of how the Myanmar script is used in Unicode.
